Education

As well as touring and recording thoughout the year , Tina is actively involved in a broad range of educational activities:

"Singing, and particularly jazz singing, is a great way of speaking to people. My personal approach is to assist people in discovering their own sound, to release it and support it through good breathing technique. I am very committed to helping young singers avoid damaging their voices. Since jazz is such a vibrant and communicative art form, I'm especially interested in education in jazz for all age groups. In the early nineties I recorded two 10-part series for BBC Radio 4, which were repeated on BBC Radio 3 for
schools. The first series was called 'Jazzamatazz' for 9 to 12 year olds and developed improvisational skills.The second was called "Dig it !" for 7 to 9 year olds. These were the first broadcasts of this type, introducing jazz into a national musical syllabus."

Tina is a member of the Association Of Teachers Of Singing (AOTOS) and teaches a small number of private students. She has taught or continues to teach at many of the most prestigious UK institutions. These include :
